Easter Weekend

It's been a fun week with Grandpa and Grandma Nordfelt here. Thanks to Kirtly, I got a lot of sleep and I rested well knowing my kids weren't coloring on the backporch with crayons.

Friday night we went to Mill street in Tempe and ate at a Greek restaurant-a first for me. It was good. Then we headed to the Mesa AZ Easter pagent. It was wonderful. I must admit I enjoyed it a lot better when I left my family, the hard metal chair, and plopped my big belly down in a small space between two families that were laying on the grass. They looked at me pretty weird, but I was dying to get my feet up.

Saturday morning the Easter Bunny came, we colored eggs, and went to the Buckeye park to enjoy their festivities.

We were sad to see Grandma and Grandpa leave. We didn't quite know what to do with ourselves because they our entertainment for the week. Thanks for being such awesome in-laws!

--A disclaimer-- I promise I do my daughter's hair. It's a fight everyday, however. Lately I haven't had the energy to fight her :)

Aww...wish we could've been there. It looks (and sounds) like you guys had a fabulous weekend. These grandkids sure are loved (and spoiled). Next year we will plan on coming for the Easter Pageant. Chad is always saying he wants to go to it..but the timing is just never quite right.

What an eventful day! Here we go... BEFORE I being, I need to explain something. When I went to the Dr. on Thursday I was 37 weeks. She told me that 37 weeks is full term. The baby had also dropped. Stripping the membranes isn't inducing because the baby won't come if it is not ready. Also, she was expecting me to go into labor anytime, so it just made it convenient to have him come when Kye had work off and could be home. My contractions started to be painful around 7:00 am. Everyone was up. Katelin was laying by me on my bed being my nurse and holding my hand. So sweet. Kye was loading the car. Around 8:00 we had dropped the kids off at Crystals (LOVE you Crystal) and headed for the hospital. The longest ten miles of my life. I thought we were going to have a baby in the car. The contractions started coming every five minutes and lasting two minutes. Now you would think ten miles is quick, but not on the I-10 that is under construction during traffic! Kye tried to pull over t...

The Price Is Right 10/25/1999

Ten years ago this weekend, I went with my mom, sister, Rochelle Waite and Amber Bush to try to get on The Price is Right. I wasn't interested in really being on the show; so I lagged behind, didn't comb my hair, or take the time to do to much makeup. I would never get picked. Holy smokes, they called my name and the rest is history! Let me answer several questions right now: No, I didn't know what was going on. In fact, after everything happened, I had to sit down and fill out a bunch of paper work. I couldn't remember my address, how to spell my name, or recall what even just happened. I remember thinking, "What did I just win"? Yes, I kissed Bob and he stinks like Halloween make-up...an inch thick. (Seriously) The wheel is not heavy. No, I didn't know I was going to be picked. I didn't get to keep the $500 cash. Someone came and took it from me because, "Bob uses the same bills for every show." They just took it off my taxes. No, it is not...

It's Elvis Baby!

Kye competed in "The Last Talent Standing" competition for Maricopa County. He walked in with a suit and a note written on his brief case that said, "Auditor by day". Then he turned the brief case around and it said, "Auditor by night". Then he took off his jacket, tie, turned up his collar and put on the Elvis glasses. He was a hit! We'll find out who the top six contestants are in a week or two. (Sorry for the loud hollar, I forgot I was filming!) Go Kye!
